Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a sector has the formula
Hopefully, this looks somewhat familiar to you. Theta is the central angle given as 75, r is the radius given as 4. Filling in:
and simplifying that a bit to look less threatening, but not by much:
and
Not sure how you're supposed to express your answer so I gave both the fraction and its decimal equivalency.
If the sides are in the ratio of 11:16:24, it means that they are all multiples of a same number x, according to these factors.
So, the shorter side is 11x feet long, the middle one is 16x feet long, and the longest side is 24x feet long.
This means that the perimeter is
feet long. But we know that this is 510 feet, so we have
.
So, the three sides are 110, 160 and 240 feet long.
To find the area of a triangle knowing its three sides, you can use Heron's formula, which states that, if
is half the perimeter of the triangle whose sides are
, the area
is given by

In our case,
so the formula becomes
